AN appeal for railway memories has gone out from a man doing research for a book he is writing.

The author is John Boynton and his book is about the Oxford, Worcester and Wolverhampton Railway - the Old Worse and Worse - which reached Pershore and Evesham 150 years ago.

Mr Boynton said: "I am looking for interesting photographs, memories or experiences of the line, from long ago or recently.

"I am also hoping to hear from people who have worked on the railway."

Anyone able to help is asked to contact John Boynton, at 22 Stanklyn Lane, Kidderminster DY10 4HS.
